So I have never had a good signal at work. It's a metal building, which doesn't help.
Outside I can usually get 2 or 3 bars, but inside, usually it just searches for a signal.
So recently (last week) we installed a repeater. Basically a huge antenna outside picks up the cellular signal, and sends it to a box inside, and then two internal antennas broadcast that signal throughout the building.
I share an office with three other guys.
One guy has a Verizon iPhone-4, and he has 4 bars pretty steady, every now and then it drops to 3, but usually stays on 4.
Another guy has dumbphone that doesn't have 3g, just 1x and evdo. (unless evdo is 3g, and I'm ******ed, which is possible.) and he has 4 bars also.
The other guy has a Droid-1, but he is off this week, so I don't know what kind of signal he has.
My boss is down the hall and he has a Droid X and he has 4 bars.
I have between 0 and 1 bar. If I go down the hall toward the other antenna I get a little better and it stays around 2 bars.
What is up with that?
Is it my ROM?
I'm using OMGB.
Is it my radio? I guess I have a stock radio, unless it got changed with a ROM at some point? The only three ROMS I have installed on my phone are SkyRaider, then CM7, then OMGB, in that order.
Unless someone has any ideas pretty soon, I think I'm gonna try a different rom and see if that makes a difference. I may even try stock again.
Any ideas?
